Guess the only difference is that he won't get beat til the festival now so they're more correct in their opinion using "on track" performances!

Everything still in mix for Corbetts....
Mullins said that no final decision has been made about the five-time winner's festival target as of yet, and reports him to be in good shape ahead of the €21,000 test.
"He's well and we're hoping the meeting will be on," he said. "Using Derek just opens up another door in terms of options. We'll see how they get on and go from there. We're not committed to going one way or another at this stage."

Has there been anything on Grangeclare west at all? Hardly anything to lay on the exchangeComment

BANC really up for grabs if F2F goes Turners which Exchanges are suggesting.Comment

Well yes it’s easier to win without FTF, but looking at the nrnb market,It’s up for grabs with or without him.Originally posted by Lobos View Post
Wide open race by the looks of it.Comment

If FTF goes Turners and Grangeclare West is out, who does Willie send to the Brown Advisory? Pretty sure they'll think Embassy Gardens is there best Staying Chaser left standing and send him to the BA, they aren't going to sidestep a crack at a Grade One for the sake of the NH Chase. Also a day the owners will be targeting other races with other horses! Can easily see Embassy Gardens ending up in the BA, Nick Rockett & Minella Cocooner going NH Chase, or one of them even joining Embassy Gardens in the BA.Comment

The Ten Up chase looks a pretty strong field ATM. If one of Willie's wins that impressively then there has to be a chance it goes BANC. He's taken that route with Terminal who won the race in 2013.Comment

I think Gaelic Warrior is just becoming far too much of a cliff horse for people.
None of his left handed form is anywhere near good enough, he’s 10/15lbs better going RH. His only wins have been against trees left handed. Granted he ran a decent enough race at Cheltenham last year but Patrick said he hung right the whole race. That’s not what you want to hear with a view to Cheltenham and as we have all said many times he couldn’t win a Boodles chucked in off 129. He is a very very good horse, just not left handed imo and the stats back that up.Comment

Haha, plenty of us lemmings will be running towards that cliff edge....Originally posted by Craigy14 View Post
Whilst you're right about left-handed, let's not forget he does have 2x 2nds at the festival, it's not like he's awful.
My Tent Or Yours / Arctic Fire / Melon and so on - he's in that category isn't he?
So he's still 'very good'?
